Hi ! I am Gaëlle. I was born in Arras and grew up in the Region where I studied English for 3 years...

I will show you different sites linked to World War I, which has left huge scars in the North of France. Of course, there are many things to see and we won't have time to see everything but I will show you the most important sites so you will have a good idea of that part of our History. We will read a most moving poem from Rudyard Kipling in a British cemetery, you will discover the list of the 580 000 soldiers (all nationalities gathered) died in battle in the region, you will walk in trenches and imagine how it must have been to be a 17-year-old trying to survive there. . . A very moving tour to understand the cruelty of war and never forget. I have been working in a travel industry for 9 years, so I know pretty well the places to go and their history. I love my Region and I really love to share it with you!
- in the morning, we will go to the Wellington quarry and the different War Cemeteries (British, French and German) in Arras, Neuville-St-Vaast and Cabaret Rouge Cemetery. - we will have lunch around 13:00 - in the afternoon, you will discover a museum with many pictures from WWI, the Ring of Remembrance Memorial and Notre-Dame de Lorette in Souchez, and finally, Vimy Ridge. - 18:30-19:00, back to your hotel (depending on the time we leave from Vimy and also on traffic)
Contact your local guide to know more!!
I will drive my own car with is an air-conditionned Renault Clio which can fit up to 4 passengers. Fresh water in the car. We will walk a bit on each war site.
